Well the idea is to try to see what our idea of future space is, how we imagine the future.
Perhaps a compilation of short stories.

Thanks Peacemaker, I am trying to find people that would be interested in writing a short Afro Caribbean Sci-fi piece rather than they are actually Sci-fi writers. I want to know how we as a people view the far future, as so much of our writing is about the past.

Profound point Ackees;
So what do you make of that. Is it because Blacks lack imagination about the "without" as opposed to the "within" - Music, religion etc. Or is it because Blacks lack an understanding of themselves and their place in the order of things - thus the constant revisiting of the past to try to figure it out?
